Motivation

What makes someone get back in the game after they’ve been knocked off out their horse? And might I add, for the ka-zillionth time?

How to succeed through failure

Motivation

For many people, the idea of failure is simply not on their agenda. Not doing something the right way, or failing to get something right. It’s not something they can even comprehend. It’s the worst thing in the world to fail for some people.
